Document Highlights

• The Brewery Structure: The map detailedly numbers and categorizes the industrial blueprint of the brewery—including the Malt House, Brew House, Bottling House, and Stock Houses—alongside the specific construction materials used (such as brick, stone, and concrete).

• The Creator: It was drafted and prepared by H.W. Eddy – "The Bondman, Inc.", operating out of their Government Plan Service Department in St. Louis, Missouri.

• Historical Timeline: You can spot meticulous handwritten annotations and blueprint revisions on the document dating between 1945 and 1946, an era when the brewery was heavily distributing its famous Nickel Plate Beer.

The facility itself has a rich legacy in Indiana, dating back to its origins in 1862 as "The French Brewery" before finally closing down in the early 1960s under the name Old Crown Brewing Corporation. Documents like this are incredibly rare because much of the original physical site was later cleared for local development.
